[quote=Anonymous]Interesting. I was FF (I am 34) because my mother was pretty young/naive and the pediatrician pushed formula for myriad reasons. She doesn't have guilt or any of that of course (hello, like I said, I'm in my 30s- that would be a lot to hold on to!)- but I can tell she's a little sad that she doesn't have any words of wisdom/tricks/ secrets to help with BF since she did it for 4-6 weeks only with my siblings and I. She's kind of oddly fascinated by it too, but at least supportive. I also think that just being kind but blunt is a good approach if passive aggressive comments aren't something you feel like you want to ignore anymore. Just ask, genuinely and politely, "why do you make so many comments on breast feeding? its a short time in this person's life and its easy for me right now, so I don't see what the issue is, since it doesn't really effect anyone else?" If they have to actually answer, well, it might shut down the constant nagging.[/quote]
